James climbed onto the the oh so familiar red steam engine train. He searched through the first few compartments, searching for a particular boy named Jude Harrison. He had already changed into his robes, and wondered if Jude has as well. Then, he nearly walked into a boy in front of him. He stumbled on the hem of his robes and nearly crashed into a compartment door. Gaining his balance, he looked to see that it was Jude he had nearly walked into.
"Oh, hey there, Jude!" he said, a smile stretching across his face. He was particularly glad that the Headmaster had chosen him to help Jude, who was a transfer student from Australia, get to know Hogwarts. He had last seen him at Flourish and Blott's a few days ago, where they purchased their fifth year school books. "How are you?" he asked his dear friend, whom he had taken a fair liking to.
